Notes on safe and EMC-compliant installation
8.11.1
Definitions and terms
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) or electromagnetic interference (EMI) includes the following requirements:
Sufficient immunity of an electrical installation or an electrical device against outside electrical, magnetic or electromagnetic
interferences via cables or the ambient
Sufficiently small unwanted emission of electrical, magnetic or electromagnetic interference from an electrical installation or
an electrical device to other devices in the vicinity via cables or the ambient
8.11.2
General information on EMC
The interference emission and interference immunity of a device always depend on the entire drive concept consisting of the
following components:
Voltage supply
Servo positioning controller
Motor
Electro mechanics
Execution and type of wiring
Superimposed control
In order to increase interference immunity and to decrease interference emissions the item servo positioning controller C 1-
Series already comprises output chokes and mains filters, so that it can be operated without additional shielding and filtering
devices in most applications.
The item servo positioning controller C 1-Series are certified as per the product standard EN 61800-3 for
electrical drive systems.
In most cases no external filtering is required (see below).
The conformity certificate for EMC directive 2004/108/EC is available from the manufacturer.
Caution!
This product can cause high-frequency interference in residential areas, which could require measures for
radio interference suppression.
